HTTP 202 Accepted vs 206 Partial Content

Both HTTP 202 (Accepted) and 206 (Partial Content) belong to the 2xx Success category. 202 indicates that the request has been accepted for processing, but the processing has not been completed. The request might or might not eventually be acted upon. Meanwhile, 206 means that the server is delivering only part of the resource due to a Range header sent by the client. Used for resumable downloads and video streaming.
